    The battery replacement/buyback thread.

    In my case (just a few weeks ago), a Morley scheduler finally called me about 5 days past the outer edge of the window I was initially told by Nissan. Whether or not there's a rep in your area at the moment, that initial contact and the scheduling comes from some central office somewhere...

    The battery replacement/buyback thread.

    Well, yes, I’ve already contacted Nissan again. Thanks for your help there. I was wondering if anyone else had a similar experience.

    The battery replacement/buyback thread.

    Anyone who has gone through the process, how long did you have to wait for Morley to contact you? My arbitration specialist said on Dec 13th that Morley would contact me "within 14 business days", and that's long passed. Not sure if Morley had some Christmas-related delay or this is just par for...

    The battery replacement/buyback thread.

    When the 30kWh battery was introduced in 2016, Nissan gave two warranties on the battery (both for 8yrs/100k miles in the US). They warranted against battery failure (like bad cells), but also warranted against loss of capacity (under 9 bars). Your 24kWh battery would have had the battery...

    The battery replacement/buyback thread.

    The other thing I forgot to mention in my previous post, is that at this point you should probably open up a BBB Autoline claim. That has some difficulty, and you may have to call BBB a few times to get them to process the claim correctly, but once it goes to Nissan, Nissan will assign you a new...

    The battery replacement/buyback thread.

    There’s a couple things going on here. First, your state lemon law sucks. Nobody’s state lemon law actually applies to these situations, but Nissan has decided they’re going to use whatever formula is specified in each state’s lemon law for calculating valuation amounts. That’s both good and...

    Has anyone tried the Comma.AI system?

    There are several videos on YouTube of people using Comma.ai/OpenPilot with a Leaf which can give you a good idea of what it's capable of.

    A button that does nothing?

    In the US Leaf manual, this button is labeled as "DYNAMIC DRIVER ASSISTANCE SWITCH (for vehicles without ProPILOT Assist) (if so equipped)" and described as such: So, if you have those turned on in the menu, this switch can termporarily turn them off. If you don't have them turned on...

    The battery replacement/buyback thread.

    Something's off then. Can you share all the details of your offer? What state was it purchased in and in what state do you reside? Was the car financed or leased? If so, any remaining balance? What was the Nissan calculation for usage? Stuff like that...

    The battery replacement/buyback thread.

    Nothing yet, as I just signed and returned the re-purchase agreement a couple of days ago. The agreement was for the full 11 K that I was out of pocket, though. Hope everything goes through smoothly and quickly.

    The battery replacement/buyback thread.

    That's the source of a lot of frustration. Nissan's basically exploiting weakness in the law surrounding warranties to minimize their costs in any way possible. Some observations of what we know (with associated speculation): Battery packs for whatever reason are hard to come by. Maybe it's...

    The battery replacement/buyback thread.

    I don’t think there’s any age limit on the Auto Line program, since it’s supposed to cover all issues related to manufacturer warranty. Instead, I think they have some triage on incoming cases that automatically rejects cars over a certain age because they assume there’s no warranty coverage...

    Leaf charging randomly stops

    One thing that I've noticed is that I have a charge timer set to not charge during the day, and I have the option set to only follow the timers at home. If I plug in at work any time during the day, the car starts charging like normal. But, if I later open the app to check on the car, the car...

    Servicing Requirements for Battery Warranty

    Assuming this is in the US, federal law prohibits companies from putting these types of conditions on warranties. Nissan can say that the warranty is void if you don't come in for the battery inspection, but that doesn't mean that it's true. The law would only allow a company to void a warranty...
